Notification of Doctor

I started out on Mounjaro with Superdrug. Then realised by reading on this forum that I had chosen the most expensive supplier (!) so switched to MedExpress. They are fine, but they don't offer any maintenance plan, so I am thinking of switching again, but I am a bit worried that my GP will have received notification from three different pharmacies and will think I am up to something I shouldn't be. Has anyone else swapped twice and had problems with their surgery?

I have swapped suppliers as well. So far no news from my GP. They didn't care when I was fat and had multiple weight related issues so I don't think anyone will give a shit now.

My GP surgery has received a letter each month when I've been prescribed my next pen.
Not heard a thing from them, it just goes on my record.
I can see it in my GP record, documents section on the NHS app.

That's from two different pharmacies btw.

I doubt they'll be alarmed. They're all registered pharmacies and they'll probably know that people are chasing lower prices for their first order or need to switch for different reasons.

i hate to break it to you but if your GP is anything like mine - they haven’t even opened/read the letters they’re supposedly receiving. Also, you’re getting these privately and paying out of pocket so they literally have no say in it.
Oushk have good maintenance plans, I’ve heard. Otherwise MedExpress do support maintenance (I am with them and have already enquired even though I have a while to go still).
